Installation
General information
Installation should only be carried out by a
registered competent person.
Please Note:
Although every care has been taken to ensure
this appliance has no burrs, or sharp edges, We
recommend that you wear protective gloves when
installing and moving this appliance. This will
prevent injury.
The hob should not be fi tted above a washing
machine, a fridge or a freezer. Wall surfaces above
the work surface and in the immediate vicinity of
the cooking hob must be heat resistant.
Installations MUST be carried out in line with
the National Regulations applicable with this
product type.
Positioning
The hob is designed to be built into a work top as
detailed in the image.
Aperture width 268mm x depth 490mm (+1).
Protecting the Hob cut-out
The types of chipboard used for work surfaces swell
relatively quickly in contact with humidity.
Apply a special varnish or adhesive to the cut edge
to protect and seal it from moisture ingress.
•
The ceramic hob top can be cleaned using a
clean, damp cloth or kitchen paper. Do not
use a used dishcloth or sponge as they can
leave a fi lm of detergent on the surface which
can lead to discolouration. Please ensure that
the elements are cooled fully to avoid steam
burns.
•
You can use a specialist ceramic cleaner to
restore the surface, but use sparingly to avoid
coating the hob top too thickly. Too much
cream cleaner will lead to discolouration. Use
a dry, clean cloth to polish the surface.
•
For stubborn marks, a specialist hob scraper
can be used.
•
Do not use steam cleaners or high pressure
cleaning equipment.
•
Regular cleaning will prevent any salts or
minerals from accumulating on your hob and
discolouring the glass.
•
Wipe any spillage as soon as possible.
•
Clean the hob top as regularly as possible, this
will prevent any build up of grease which may
be a fi re hazard.
•
Foods with high sugar content (toffee, fruit
juice, jam, etc.) that boil over while cooking, or
spattered sugar stains must be immediately
removed using a scraper even if hot.
•
Do not use abrasive products, bleach, hob
cleaner spray or pan scourers.
Prior to installation, visually check the
product for any damage/defects. Do not
install if any issues are found.
Damaged products may cause risks to your own
own safety.
